6 August 2018

Following the announcement of their fixture lists for the 2018/19 campaign, Palace’s development and under-18 sides will begin the defence of their league titles at Nottingham Forest and Leeds United respectively.

On Friday 10th August Richard Shaw’s under-23s will head to Alfreton to take on the side that ended their hopes of winning the national title at the semi-final stage last May, while a day later Paddy McCarthy’s youngsters will also face a long trip north to face the Whites at their Thorpe Arch training ground.

A week later, the under-18s will face Hull City in their first home game of the campaign at the Academy Training Ground on Copers Cope Road, while on Monday 20th August Crewe Alexandra will take on the under-23s.

All the academy side’s games will be played at the Academy Training Ground, while seven of Palace’s 14 home games will take place at Selhurst Park, when Barnsley, Colchester United, Coventry City, Millwall, Bolton Wanderers, Sheffield United and Leeds United will be the opposition in 1pm kick-offs.

The rest will be split between the First-Team and Academy Training Grounds, with details to be announced in the coming days.
